General procedure for data processing

The following describes a flow of processing that generates output data from input data in DataMagic.

The two ways to create data processing information are as follows:

• Create a data format for layout information by specifying the settings for data processing

• First register the data format for layout information, and then specify the created layout information when specifying the settings for data processing

In this manual, the second way is applied. Namely, data processing information is registered beforehand.

Common resource information is a new feature that is added to the product specifications. When you use a database as input or output or create a sub-processing routine that can be reused among multiple data processes, define common resource information (database connection information or common component information, respectively) according to the details of the data processing.
